    Preparation Steps

    1

    Rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly in cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch, ensuring fluffier rice.

    2

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil with a pinch of salt, then add the rice. Cover and simmer over low heat for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and the water is absorbed.

    3

    While the rice is cooking, mince the garlic and ginger, and chop the scallion. Roughly chop the roasted peanuts.

    4

    In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, coconut milk, and lime juice to create a smooth peanut sauce.

    5

    In a skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

    6

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the sautéed garlic and ginger.

    7

    Pour the peanut sauce over the rice and stir well to ensure every grain is coated with the flavorful sauce.

    8

    Garnish with the chopped peanuts and scallions, and serve immediately.
